Abstract
One of the general trends of the transport and logistics sector is the
growing demand for mobility. In the EU area transport has a total expenditure
of around 1000 billion euros, generating over 10 % of the Union’s GDP. It is
also a very vital issue for Finland’s economy. The following brief article
illustrates logistics questions from the Finnish point of view and gives some
examples of the current logistics R&D activities of VTT, the Technical
Research Centre of Finland.
